I got this machine months ago and never even opened the box until this week I needed to sew something. I could not even get the machine to pick up the bobbin thread and sew. I am no seamstress but my daughter bought this for me for rips and tears I had put it in a closet and when I needed it I could not get it to sew. Wish I had tried it earlier so I could return it and buy one I could use.

We got this sewing machine for my daughter as a christmas present. It has worked out so great for her that I might even purchase one for myself as well. It was so easy for her to use and is very sturdy lots of options.

This will likely be the oddest review you'll read on this sewing machine. I'm a 56 year old man, divorced, and remember as a youngster using my Mom's Singer with the push pedals! I haven't had access to a sewing machine in ages and often wished I did (even bought one of those 'as seen on TV' hand-held worthless things).

I didn't need or want anything too 'top of the line' (I'm no seamstress) nor did I want a toy. After doing the research, I settled on buying this machine. Having used it a couple of times now, I'm happy to say it's just about "perfect" for my needs. I like the slower speed. I like the stitch choices (the ol' Singer didn't have any of them). I've repaired some boxer shorts and even some leather (not boxers) going through 3 layers.

After probably 40 years of no access to a sewing machine, I'm very pleased with this one. This machine is about right for any bachelor friends you may have who might have a need for one.

Kenmore has surprised me again! This time with their easy to use Beginner Sewing Machine. This product has many features including lightweight, easy to use, durability and warrenty.

The best thing about this machine is the lightweight of the product. This lets me take this machine to all my fashion classes with out the worry of it fitting into my small car or being to heavy to lift. The size is perfect, it does not take up that much space in my craft room and has a nice look that doesn't take away from the room's look.

Another Feature is the easy to use operations. The guide book it comes with gives you the easy steps to set up and changing of its parts. Its so easy the age limit for this machine is set to ages 8 and up. Very easy, Very simple and amazing.

Along with its lightweight comes durability. This machine is long lasting. Even when i know its going to power down or give out on me i know that Kenmore will be there to help me cover all the repairs with its one year warrenty.

This machine is great if you are beginning to learn to sew. It has many options for different stiching styles and is easy to use. The stiches come out very beautifully. The only problem I found is that the thread sometimes escapes the needle and you have to rethread but it is really easy to do.

I love this sewing machine. I bought it to teach my 2nd grade grand-daughter to sew. She was so excited to use the machine and it goes just the right speed for her. It is not as fast as a large sewing machine but it still gets the job done. It sews just like a big machine other than a little slower. What a great machine. Outstanding!

this machine weighs around 11-12 pounds and takes up a very small footprint. at the same time, it is not a toy! it can be used as one's primary sewing machine quite easily if your needs consist of hemming, garment construction, seam repair, etc. you can also take this machine to quilting class - it's very lightweight.
this would also be good for someone new to sewing as the threading is easy to do.
